Women`s issues: Then and Now!




The article addressed the matherhood issue comparing the Victorian British Aristocracy with the Modern Day Britain. 3 subjects are addressed: the reasons to have babies, taking care of the babies and labor and delivery



“New technology and discoveries directly effect every aspect of human life including labor and delivery. Motherhood in the Victorian British aristocracy is different than the ideals and practices associated with modern day motherhood, and change will continue as it , like reproduction, is inevitable”.
